Viral Infection‐Inspired Autonomous Detection of Fusion‐Competent Viruses for Screening and Environmental Surveillance

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by viral entry mechanisms, the FUSION assay enables autonomous detection of respiratory viruses via membrane fusion–triggered CRISPR‐Cas13a activation. VEACON selectively fuses with fusion‐competent viruses, triggering fluorescence within confined vesicles.

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Exploring the Influence of Toasting Levels, Grain Sizes, and Their Combination on the Volatile Profile of Tempranillo Red Wines Aged in Quercus petraea Barrels

Molecules
The ageing of wine in oak barrels enhances its sensory properties, with the toasting level and grain size of the wood significantly influencing the volatile composition of the wine. This study evaluated the impact of three toasting levels (light toasting,

Within-Stem Variation in Wood Properties of Red Pine (Pinus Resinosa AIT.)

, 2012
Some physical and mechanical properties, including tension parallel-to-grain, tension perpendicular-to-grain, and shear parallel-to-grain, and their variations within the tree stem of red pine (Pinus resinosa Ait.) were evaluated in this study. All these

Variation in wood density between mature sessile oak and English oak trees growing in different vegetation zones

Journal of Forest Science
Wood density is a fundamental functional trait influencing ecological adaptation, hydraulic safety, and timber utilisation in temperate hardwoods. This study investigated variation in wood density (12% moisture) across mature stands of two economically ...

Self‐Seeded Nucleation of PET in a Benign Solvent Yields a High Modulus Aerogel With Ultra‐Low Thermal Conductivity

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new benign solvent (1,3‐diphenylacetone) enables a simple, safe, and sustainable dissolution and gelation method to convert waste PET into low density, monolithic aerogels with high mechanical strength (E = 20 MPa) and remarkably low thermal conductivity (k = 21.9 to 28.9 mW/m·K).
